You would need to rewrite some code in the core of Jira. I would look at why you've got so many queues first, it sounds like you've got a very over-complicated setup.

The fee is calculated purely on the numbers of users and the tier (business class or enterprise)

I'm sorry, I got too focussed on understanding the problem, and then when I had, relating the solution back to the original question. Your thinking is correct here, you will need to do this with custom fields. The JQL functions are for searching, they do not apply to ordering. The "order by" clause is not a part of a…

Could you explain what this has to do with Jira?

Ah, ok, that makes sense. Yes, you could use Scriptrunner to create a JQL function for this sort of thing. They are a bit more complicated for this purpose than a scripted field (a scripted field script could be as short as "return issue.getComponents().size()" ), but should be possible. Get started…

Could you ask the question here instead of pointing us at videos that don't work?

What do you mean by component size and affectd/fixversion size?

If you're getting a simple blank screen, that means the proxy is working, in the sense that it is fetching the page from somewhere, but that somewhere is serving no content. This usually happens when you have gone to the Tomcat running the Jira, but not the Jira application within it. If, for example, you have told Tomcat…

Probably not, as that's way too old. It might work, if it's a well kept, and uncustomised site with no apps that need to come across. But I would not recommend it. See https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloud/supported-versions-for-jira-cloud-site-import-979413582.html for the full guide.

There is no way to do this, Jira will simply track every update made at the time people commit their version, blocking ones that are incompatible (e.g. user 1 moves the status on, and then user 2 tries to do another transition from the old status, which isn't valid for the current one) I would question why you have a lot…

Trello were acquired by Atlassian four years ago, so it wasn't that. I suspect you mean the switch to Atlassian accounts has been applied (you were emailed about it, even if you didn't see the messaging on Trello's front end because you were not using it), and because you didn't do anything to update, it's defaulted to…

I forgot, there is another option, in that if you get one of the scripting apps (or do a bit of work coding an app), you can write something that can update, add or remove options from a field after reading changes from almost anywhwere.

Argh, no. To do this, you will need to get a better understanding of the database (your insert statement will corrupt Jira unless it's done alongside some other stuff). Once you know that well enough to construct non-breaking SQL, you willl need to shut down Jira, take a full backup, restore it to a test system to make…

Directly, no, you do not "link a column to a board". Assuming you are using a classic project for this though, you can create multiple boards to get roughl what I think you're trying to do. Create one master board with five columns - one for each column in your flow, with each set of status from your main column in it.…

Thanks, that's cleared up what I suspected - it's not something I have run into myself (I've not written DC apps). But it saves us suffering the other essay-like answers that don't apply!

Those are all linked in different ways, so also a right royal pain to do in the database. I really do suggest you stop and do this properly. (Oh, and the heirarchy is Epic -> Issue/Task -> Sub-task, not the four layers you've described - was that a typo?)

I leave out the point releases, they very rarely matter for upgrades. Just use the latest available.

You will need to upgrade it to 6.4, then 7.0, then at least 7.8, but 7.13 would be better. Your database version should be fine to get you up to 7.13.

Confluence doesn't have anything I think of as a developer console, but I think it is a bit of a vague phrase. Could you expand on what you're thinking it might do? Without that though, I could say: If you're using the SDK and a developer installation (which you can create with the SDK), that adds some functions that help…

Ok, but why? Order by works for components, fix version, affects version and the other system fields. Why do you think you need a new function for this? I guess you could say I'm asking "what exactly are you trying to order by"? Maybe an example of a sort you cannot do with "order by"?

"type" is a shorthand for "issue type". In JQL you can use issuetype = epic and type = epic to get the same thing - a list of epics. The shorthand only applies in some places though.

But note that the commitment is to the Story there. Not the tasks. And that's the point you keep ignoring. The burn down and committment is done on stories. So you've now got a scheme where you may want to sum the tasks effort up on to the story so you burn down on it, or you want a full estimate on sub-task scheme, but…

Ah, it's part of an app, not a script, sorry, I did not grasp that from the question. I have not yet coded for Cloud Jira, so I don't know the answer to this one. It feels like the variables should be fed to your code by the framework it's running in, but I don't know where to look next for them. Sorry.

Almost. For classic projects, you would not have to start from blank and rebuild a new set of configurations entirely - you can copy existing workflows, screens, schemes and so-on, but you'll still have to apply them to your new project, and check how all the custom fields are given context into the projects. For Next-gen…

Not unless your user administration is tied to your windows user directory provider. The only way to get admin permissions in Jira server is to get your account added to the groups that are named to have it. There's usually only one group named, but there might be several. It's likely to be jira-administrators and…

It is, if you modify the workflow so that it has an "archive" status you can map into the archive column. You could even not have an archive column at all, so sub-tasks would vanish from the board entirely (although you can only do that with classic projects/boards)

Jira already has an order by function, so I think I need to start by asking why that is not working for you?

Correct, that's because testing should be part of the story's estimate according to Agile. It's expected that when the team is refining the backlog, the test element should be included in the estimate then. Note that you don't put estimates on sub-tasks, they're part of the story, not separate items that you commit to…

For a bit more context (I've got three ways I could be reading the question), could you tell us what "DC Checklist" you are using? Typing some of the phrases you have used into google does not land me on any documentation, so I'm a bit lost on what you're reading.

You will need an app to provide a function like that. Scriptrunner is the only one I know off the top of my head, but I've not looked for others (As an adaptavist, I tend to have SR on tap, so I haven't needed to look)
